His two antlered companions came to stand beside him. They listened, squinting into the distance and trying to ascertain from which direction the sound had come. Alinak and Nap would know that he had sought safety on the high ground of the ridge, which would allow them at least some advantage over whatever it was that was stalking them. No sinew was stronger or more resilient, no fat burned longer in the concave ovals of the burning stones that served as lamps.

For three days now, they had been fanning out from the encampment, desperately searching for any sort of game, each hoping to be the first to sight the long-awaited herds upon which the band had come to depend for all those things that were the very blood of life to them: No meat was sweeter, no hides were warmer or more versatile, no antlers or bones were more malleable. But a young shaman has foreseen a sign of doom. The final two books in the series are about new families once again. Then the cold had returned, and storms had raged down upon them from out of the north like ravening wolves.

Led by their powerful headman Tôrnârssuk, they begin a treacherous journey to the Great River of the White Whales, where they hope to hunt, trade, and reunite with friendly tribes.

The wind brought it to them, taunted them with it, then took it away before they could put name to it. Their bellies were tight and aching with hunger.

After having read and enjoyed Beyond the Sea of Ice, Corridor of Storms, Forbidden Land and Walkers of the Wind, I was looking forward to reading the continuation of The First Americans series. It was the faintest banding of light, but it would stay long enough to be called morning, to set shadows of mauve and gray upon a land that had not seen sunlight for months. They yearned to see vast herds of migrating cows and young, with the bulls following in separate traveling units, pouring out across the tundra from the distant mountains en route to their calving grounds far to the east. The warmth of their clothing could not protect them from fatigue or hunger. Tornarssuk also faces treachery from both within and without his clan. Tôrnârssuk also faces treachery from both within and without his clan.
The hunters waited, but the sound did not recur. Now he looked back, out across the vistas fogged by thick clouds of blowing ground snow. Bestselling author William Sarabande has once again captured the fierce and savage splendor of a prehistoric continent--and at the same time painted a vivid and unforgettable portrait of our first American ancestors in a bold and magnificent novel filled with adventure, treachery, discovery, and courage. What Torka had suddenly made for the ridge at a run, optimism had caused both men to assume that the herds had at last been sighted. It was the merest inference of the warmth of living flesh and breath. In sympathy, the sky spirits had taken the suffering baby''s body along with its soul. Even as he leads his people through danger, an enemy is waiting for him with a plan that could break not only Tornarssuk but the uneasy truce that exists between the northern Inuits and the forest dwellers.

In garments sewn of such fur, a hunter could stay out upon the wind-ravaged tundra indefinitely without feeling the cold. Two other women had followed Teenak''s example with their own offspring. Their undergarments were of the supplest skins of caribou fawns. There had been a brief thaw. Antlers branched outward from their hooded heads.
Torka stood immobile, his face impassive, although once again his senses screamed: Danger! Soon clan could turn against clan, and brother against brother, in the bitterest struggle for survival. Stunningly visual, extraordinarily detailed, powerfully dramatic, here is the first volume of a remarkable new series. The herds were long overdue. The books are well written and provide an insight into what life might have been like for our ancestors. At least forty thousand years would pass before hunters of another epoch would call this land Siberia. During the last few days they had tacitly allowed him to lead them.
Beyond The Sea Of Ice, toward a new day for their clan--and an awesome future for the American. Within the faraway, glacier-ridden mountains, the dire wolves fell silent.
